My Spoonflower fabric shop – Mein Spoonflower Stoff-Shop

In between working for Indigo I am reorganizing my Spoonflower Shop – that's the digital printing company where some of my patterns are already available as fabric. I plan to make more patterns available and might share more of this as the fabric swatches arrive. For now you can see an overview of the existing patterns above, available in a selection of different fabric qualities.

All these are older designs that I did before studying Surface Pattern Design. I have to confess that I deleted some of my older patterns, but I still like the remaining ones. Most of them are based on rather naturalistic watercolour illustrations, a bit "old school" really. (I love "old school", well, just sometimes!)
For me it is interesting to notice the difference: THEN I used to put part of my illustrations in repeat to give them a "second life", NOW I paint and draw with the direct aim to create motifs for patterns. Might sound a bit hairsplitting but it is a big difference in feel whilst creating!

Seems that there is a market for watercolour/handpainted designs on Spoonflower – which makes perfectly sense to me because with the innovative digital technique even watercolours can be printed really well. And that seems to be what the "regular" fabric companies rarely offer. To view my designs for fabric please go to http://www.spoonflower.com/profiles/evamarion

Anyone who is interested in buying but unfamiliar with the online ordering process or fabric quality: please just send an email to m.seyffarth@handundkopf-design.de , I will be happy to assist you!
